Actress Minka Kelly appeared on "Today with Jenna & Friends" to promote her new romantic comedy, "Champagne Problems." During the interview, guest cohost Jenna Bush Hager unexpectedly shifted the conversation to Kelly's personal life, specifically her relationship with Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds. Hager began by alluding to the holidays and love in the context of Kelly's film, then directly asked about the "very big love" in her life, inviting her to share if she felt comfortable.
This question visibly caught Kelly off guard, causing a moment of hesitation and slight surprise, as indicated by her leaning back and looking off-camera. Despite her initial surprise, Kelly remained composed.
She acknowledged Hager's reference to a birthday message she posted for Reynolds, responding with a small smile and stating, "I'm very lucky. He's a really good guy." Sensing the slight awkwardness, Olivia Munn intervened by sharing a positive anecdote about working with Reynolds on an Imagine Dragons music video, which helped to ease the tension.
Kelly then appeared to relax and opened up further about Reynolds and his bandmates, confirming her positive feelings. The article also provides background context, noting that Kelly and Reynolds first sparked dating rumors in November 2022, following his divorce from ex-wife Aja Volkman.
